Neftekhimik head coach Oleg Leontyev speaks with the media after a following 2–3 (OT) loss against Severstal.

– We started well, scored two goals, but at the end of the first, the opponent scored on the power play. Cool execution, the second goal was also scored on the power play. Our players did their best and fought to the very end. Everyone knew how important this game was for us. The captain played great and led the team. The goaltender played great. Of course, there were some mistakes made. Overall, it would better if we had taken advantage of the shootout attempt we had in overtime. It is what it is. We are fighting despite the fact that we got another player injured, Shafigullin, who leads the team.
